I was looking under support and it says I don't need to do a full transfer. I am trying to change the CNAME and/or A-record but it doesn't seem to be working.

This is what I'm following:

CNAME <subdomain> <host>
A <subdomain> <IP>

What would be my subdomain? What would be the host?

the domain I use is tosinmojispeaks.com...this is what I want to redirect to tumblr.
